Does anyone have any ideas what might be wrong. (Yes I did start clean with the
tar file and then ./configure.)

In general, this means that R bails out while executing
library/base/R/base, leaving most of the functions undefined. Almost
the entire file is simple assignments, so it's very likely likely that
the trouble spot is the .Alias line in:

..
machine <- function().Internal(machine())
colors <- function().Internal(colors())
colours <- .Alias(colors)
args <- function(name).Internal(args(name))
..
which, pretty obviously should not fail. Check whether the file looks
sane and if it is then whether you can execute the lines by hand.
